This is the best beer I’ve had from Black Isle for a very long time.
It’s big and bold and full of fun, pouring a pale gold with a big thick and rather creamy head, the aroma is boozy peaches and passion fruit.
And that’s a good place to start describing the flavours, with rich sweet passion fruit and peach joined by grapefruit and melon, lemon zest and lime leaves from the hops, while the malts provide a solid brown sugar and wafer biscuit body.
There’s a little alcohol warmth loitering in the background of the beer and everything finishes with a tongue tinglingly dry bitter fizzy sherbet.
Very good.
